Backup and select External storage.

Select USB storage to back up your data, then touch Next.

Select the data you want to back up and touch Back up. You can then touch Select all in the bottom right corner to back up all data, or select individual data files for backup. After your selection, the system automatically calculates the capacity required for the backup.

On the Set password screen, follow the onscreen instructions to set the password for data security. If you select Skip to skip the password setting, Wi-Fi and financial app data will not be backed up.

You can view your backup files in the Huawei/Backup folder by going to Files > Local.
